This looks good. Hope it gets release over here.

Interestingly, this is getting some traction in the States.

How a distributor will decide to show it over here.

As stated at Demonic thread, horror genre movies are in a slum...

apparently its VOD/bluray/etc is going to be released at the same date its wide theatrical release in the USA lol.

Really?

The way I understand it, it is at the cinema in the States now, but limited cinema.

It is doing well, so the distributor decided to go wide with the cinema release!!

Yea, i mean the same date as the wide release

Ah... thanks for that.

wow wow wow! good news i saw it on GSC website May 7 will be able to watch it. Just hope they don't cancel it...

Boils down to which camp you're in, if you can tolerate slow burn and strong emphasis of character build-up then there will be something for you. If you are in the camp of the James Wan bullshit type of horror flick, then you won't enjoy this movie one bit. Given the extremely limited budget, the filmmaker relies heavily on setting the dreaded tone with clever use of soundtrack and smart writing to deliver the horror. You can even call it a throwback to the 70's type of movie making where everything happens within the framing of camera. The other aspect the filmmaker manage to set it apart by grounding the story within a perimeter of rules.

The basic idea is you need to get rid of a curse contracted by having sex with a stranger, in order to get rid of it...you need to pass it to another person otherwise an entity will come after you. The twist is the curse need to pass on perpetually otherwise the curse will track back to you. It works kinda like a chain mail. The thing is the entity can take shape in anybody. So the tension and horror came from passing the curse to another person and ensuring it does not come back to you while the entity following you.

Overall something different and it's not as good as The Babadook. Still OK for me as I just cannot stand those inept jump scare crap running rampant nowadays.

Morning

Almost like 'Poltergeist'; 2015 version coming soon.

Plenty of boobs

Probably a sequel.

And better than the first.

Weak storyline.

Low budget movie.

i tried to watch the movie, it is sooo boring, the soundtrack is horrible, I can't finish it.
no element of horror. Anyhow just my own opinion.

wow really that bad? The reviews above you also say it wasn't too good. But the review from the USA claimed it was very good?

dunno bro, you may try to watch it, since everyone got different taste.
Just that this movie is not my type of horror.

Did anyone watch this in cinemas? There would be so censored scenes I presumed? Since according to IMDB the movie contains graphic nudity..

It's all pretty much depend on whether you can sit through an indie movie with snail like pacing. It just lacks the glossy treatment of those Hollywood manufactured flicks. To be honest, it won't be the scariest thing you'll ever see, but there's a genuine effort to try something new given the paltry budget and more of a passion project that does not answer to a committee of studio execs.

There also some homage to John Carpenter with the use of the synth music direction and riffing the type of horror movies made back in the 70's like Omen,Halloween,Christine,....where emphasis placed on story first and not how to insert jumpscare in between story beats. I just couldn't differentiate Conjuring from Sinister as they are just copying each other over and over again.

The reviews were overrated across all boards on metacritics or rotten tomato IMO. Could be a cultural thing or the idea of an effective urban legend myth, maybe not in the way how we perceive it.

damn i gonna watch it tmw. Ya got excited for this movie bcs of the reviews... Hiya is James Wan the only guy who knows how to make a good horror movie???Also would you say this is more of a slasher film then horror???

Been wanting to watch this due to the amount of positive reviews by the western critics. Well, knowing them, they'd write good things for most movies with good new original concept, produced with small budget. I'd take slow-paced refreshing horror over conventional jump scares and overused haunted house story any time.

Well, usually the best horror film directors are the one who does not pigeon hole themselves into one specific genre. The big kahuna like Kubrick,Lynch,Cronenberg...are great film directors first and just choose to reinterpret the genre they work on. To me the more capable hand at the moment is Guillermo Del Toro, who blends in sublime production design and approach it from the dark fantasy angle. Otherwise I just keep an eye on the European side of things. They are more averse to experiment with fresher story elements and stronger character work. The hollywood produced is a more risk free byproducts and continuing threading on familiarity.
Technically it's more of an urban legend kind of movie where you share it on campfire and not your typical vengeful spirit haunting you.

saw this already. It was ok la, have that eerie feeling...
